Detailed description
System, apparatus and method discussed here are related to portable communication device or user apparatus (UE), for passing through elder generation Preceding not service for WLAN (WLAN) discovery and access of UE supply, the user without UE provides certificate information.In order to It is accessed and is serviced by WLAN, it is necessary to the card of WLAN service provider of the UE supply from WLAN with Wi-Fi call capabilities Book, to obtain the access to WLAN.If not to UE supply, user can by online registration (OSU) process come New account is created with WLAN service provider, still, it may be required that user provides such as his/her name, Billing Address, society The sensitive information of social security number or taxid, credit card information or the like.The present invention provides the cellular network operator using user and UE it Between trusting relationship system, apparatus and method, rather than allow user to the WLAN of unknown or previous dereferenced service provide Quotient provides potential sensitive information.
When UE is scanned and finds not supply for UE or when not accredited WLAN, determines which WLAN can be used for providing clothes Business.UE can be come with standard based on expectations (signal strength, service quality (QoS), data rate, bandwidth, safety etc.) Select WLAN.Then, UE is communicated via cellular network with the foundation of its Mobile Network Operator (MNO), and is sent to selected one Or the access request of multiple WLAN.Then, MNO sends the WLAN service for UE to the WLAN service provider of selected WLAN Request.As return, WLAN service provider sends the response including access certificate to MNO, and is also selected WLAN supply is directed to the access certificate of the UE.UE is from the access certificate that MNO downloading includes that WLAN service provider is sent to MNO Profile (profile), and registered to selected WLAN, to pass through selected WLAN access service.
System described herein, device and method can be realized in many ways.Example is provided below with reference to the following drawings Property implementation.
Fig. 1 show according to the disclosure at least one in terms of example context 100, wherein portable communication device or use Family device (UE) 102 is accessed via WLAN (WLAN) 104 and is serviced.
WLAN 104 includes N number of access point (AP) 106, wherein three (106 (1), 106 (2) and 106 (N)) are shown, WLAN gateway (GW) 108 is communicatively coupled to AP 106, and certification, authorization, charging (AAA) server 110, can communicate It is coupled to WLAN GW 108 in ground.AP 106 is the transceiver that the wlan device of such as UE 102 is connected to WLAN.WLAN GW Data grouping is routed to other networks from AP 106 by 108, and vice versa.Aaa server 110 tracks user's by following Activity: network and service and charging are accessed with unique identification information certification user, authorized user or tracks the activity of user. Aaa server 110 can be connected to other servers via internet 112.WLAN 104 is communicatively coupled to WLAN service Addressable service can be supplied to by AP 106 and be registered to setting for WLAN 104 by provider 114, WLAN service provider 114 It is standby.WLAN service provider 114 includes enhancing access network quality agreement (E-ANQP) server 116, such as UE's 102 Wlan device is for executing network discovery.UE 102 can be built with WLAN (such as WLAN 104) and with cellular network Vertical communication, cellular network can be the network of the Mobile Network Operator (MNO) 118 of UE 102, MNO network 120.MNO network 120 include enhancing access network discovery and selection function (E-ANDSF) server 122 and home location register/home subscriber Server (HLR/HSS) 124.E-ANDSF server 122 helps UE 102 to find WLAN and provide for UE 102 for connecting To the rule and strategy of WLAN.The storage of HLR/HSS 124 and update user subscription information, and also generate security information.
Fig. 2 shows according to the disclosure at least one in terms of the showing by the access service of WLAN 104 for UE 102 Example process 200.In frame 202, when user (or more specifically, UE 102) leaves a WLAN coverage domain and enters newly When WLAN coverage domain, in frame 204, the scanning of UE 102 is available with 102 dereferenced of UE to have found that it is likely that in new region WLAN.After the available WLAN 104 with dereferenced of discovery, in block 206, UE 102 is communicated with the foundation of MNO network 120, and And send and request to MNO 118 in frame 208, to access service by the WLAN 104 of dereferenced.Then, in block 210, UE 102 are securely accessed by service by the WLAN 104 of dereferenced.
Fig. 3 show according to the disclosure at least one in terms of detailed description frame 204 instantiation procedure 300.In block 302, When UE 102 scans WLAN, it can be found that multiple WLAN, each WLAN can be by the E-ANQP servers with their own Independent WLAN service provider support.In block 304, UE 102 inquires each E-ANQP server of found WLAN, With the availability of each WLAN of determination, and in frame 306, determine found WLAN whether include supplied with UE 102 WLAN to work together.If identifying already served WLAN, UE 102 is registered to already served WLAN, and in frame 308 In, begin through already served WLAN access service.However, if not identifying already served WLAN, UE in a block 310 102 can choose the specific WLAN for meeting preassigned, the i.e. WLAN 104 of dereferenced.Preassigned can include but is not limited to Signal strength, service quality, available bandwidth, Available Bit Rate, safety etc..
Fig. 4 show according to the disclosure at least one in terms of detailed description frame 206 instantiation procedure.Once UE 102 is selected Not yet supply to provide the WLAN 104 of the dereferenced of the secure access to UE 102, in frame 402, UE 102 just with MNO net Network 120 establishes communication.Then, in frame 404, the E-ANDSF server 122 of UE 102 and MNO 118 is mutually authenticated.Once by Certification, in frame 208, UE 102 just sends to the E-ANDSF server 122 of MNO 118 and requests, to be accessed by WLAN 104 Service.
Fig. 5 show according to the disclosure at least one in terms of detailed description frame 208 instantiation procedure.In frame 502, response In the request from UE 102 by the access service of WLAN 104 of selected WLAN, dereferenced, MNO 118 execute or Person UE 102 makes MNO 118 execute following steps.In frame 504, the E-ANDSF server 122 of MNO 118 is mentioned to WLAN service The request for UE 102 by the access service of WLAN 104 is sent for the E-ANQP server 116 of quotient 114.E-ANDSF service Device 122 can also check online registration (OSU) availability of WALN 104, and receive it if available.It is asked in response to this It asks, in block 506, the E-ANQP server 116 of WLAN service provider 114 provides or MNO 118 provides WLAN service Access certificate needed for the E-ANQP server 116 of quotient 114 provides the access service of WLAN 104 of the UE 102 by dereferenced.E- ANQP server 116 is also supplied or MNO 118 makes E-ANQP server 116 to 104 supply access certificate of WLAN dereferenced.? In frame 508, UE 102 receives the profile including access certificate from E-ANDSF 122.In frame 510, UE 102 is come using profile Self supply, and in frame 512, it is interrelated using the access certificate and WLAN 104 of profile and the WLAN 104 of dereferenced And certification.In frame 514, UE 102 registers the WLAN 104 of dereferenced.During the process, if UE 102 find one with Upper WLAN meets above-mentioned all steps, then UE 102 can register more than one WLAN, and can be by these WLAN simultaneously Access service.
